Yes. This is true for many independent artist.

Thankfully, these same guys usually sell their cd for like $5-$10.

Yeah, except this is a good band that deserves a much larger fanbase. They have a video uploaded in december that still has under 4000 views and they're pretty well established.

And che, I could buy the album off itunes for under 2 bucks but I'm too cheap. I'm waiting on a torrent that may or may not ever go through.

To be honest if you aren't willing to spend $2 on the band they can't be as good as you say they are.

Fucks sake all the links I'm finding are from 2006.

This is what I want to download, it says it's been done 89 times, but I can't find a link to click on that page. Actually the download number seems to be the number of times the page has been loaded. Can anyone find a download link in there?

Torrent is working. Fuck yeah.

The first thought that comes to mind is that you're trolling yourself.

Mate it was going at 100 kb/s. It's died down a bit now but I'm enchanted because I actually found what I was looking for. Fingers crossed that the seeders don't go offline before it finishes.

I've been reading the Iliad the last couple of days and man it's fucking wordy. There was nearly an entire page describing the way light reflects from a shield.

One of the most badass opening lines in all of literature though.

"Sing, O goddess, the anger of Achilles son of Peleus, that brought countless ills upon the Achaeans. Many a brave soul did it send hurrying down to Hades, and many a hero did it yield a prey to dogs and vultures, for so were the counsels of Jove fulfilled from the day on which the son of Atreus, king of men, and great Achilles, first fell out with one another. ."

Lattimore's translation goes, "Sing, goddess the anger of Peleus' son Achilleus and its devastation which puts pains thousandfold upon the Achaians, hurled in their multitudes to the house of Hades strong souls of heroes, but gave their bodies to be the delicate feasting of dogs, all birds, and the will of Zeus was accomplished since that time when first there stood in division of conflict Atreus' son the lord of men and the brilliant Achilleus."

72 words to your 70 but for some reason this version is more painstaking then yours to me.

Reminded me of today's Santos game. The announcer went on a Greek mythology rant after talking about Hercules Gomez It was pretty good but I'm sure, like the other commentator, the majority of the people listening wanted him to move on.

Who was the commentator? Pablo Ramirez?

I like him because he's pretty funny but he has a tendency of using "literally" wrong.

Like he'll say something like, "ese pelota es literalment un cabeza de un dragon..."

It makes me cringe and I'm always like "No, Pablo, it's not literally a dragon's head."

It's been about three weeks now. I'm still here.

I've been on the other forum for a while too. I just haven't posted yet.

It wouldn't be appropriate, the-Playmaker's not even cold yet.

No, it was one of the Azteca commentators. Don't know his name.

I bet it was Martinoli. I was thinking it was either Ramirez or him.



I don't like the Azteca guys(Actually, I should of known it was the Azteca guys, Chiapas' (and Santos') home games are broadcast by them.) they rip into the players way too much for my taste. The commentators for Azteca are Martinoli, along with famed footballers Jorge Campos and Luis Garcia Postigo.

They're commentary style is like watching my cousins Lino (Moe), Mono (Larry), and Jabas (Curly) narrate a football match.

why are Madrid and Barca playing at 10 am EST

Fucking 5 star post. I was about to go to sleep until the Liverpool game since I thought El Classico would be at a regular time for La Liga games.

Madrid wanted to play at the same time/earlier than us (not that we had that privilege before the first leg..). Originally wanted it to be played last night, but Barca didn't fancy that.

I made an account too, but I'm not going to post there. I browsed it and it's just old playmakers with a dash of others. If they don't care enough to stay here, then I won't care enough to go there when this empties out. Not like I'm some hotshot poster though, its just my principles.

It was a dagger to the heart to see Jordi posting there.

Madrid lead and Ray Hudson's commentary is spectacular

Barcelona ain't shit 3bh

1-0 Madrid. Great pass by Morata.

Tito has saliva gland cancer? The fuck man.

Watching Swansea x Newcastle instead. Can't be bothered with the classico for some reason.

cause you a fuckboi

Finally.

Welp. Messi 1-1

This insult calls for an e-duel.

Consider yourself glove-slapped.
